Middle Canyon Road

The west side of the Salt Lake Valley is home to the Oquirrh Mountains. Often overshadowed by the Wasatch Mountain Range across the valley, the Oquirrh Mountains play host to one of the world's largest copper mines, in addition to some of the most beautiful and easily accessible scenery in the valley. Middle Canyon Road, nestled within the Oquirrhs, is a quick and easy trail that gives you access to some of the greatest features that this mountain range has to offer. Plenty of camping, hiking trails, cityscapes, and access to views of the copper mine await for those who venture here.
